HALLOWEEN FLOAT CONGRATS!
Radcliffe's Chessie the Chesapeake Bay Monster float WOWED the judges at Chestertown's Halloween Parade, taking first place! The $25 winnings will be used to purchase art supplies for the art room. We would like to thank the following students for riding on this year's Halloween parade float: Mattox, Owen, Cannon, Quinten, Morgan, Bailey, Finn, Aiden, Olivia, Ady, Bella, Ella, Peter, and Mariner. We also wanted to give a big shout out to all of the parents for their help and a special thank you goes to Ed Schut for loaning the school his trailer and building the head of Chessie. We are also very grateful to Meg Bamford, Ben Joiner, Kristin Kirby, Kat Nordhoff, and Taylor Serio for all their support and hard work to make this happen. In addition, we want to recognize the following students for all of their hard work to create the float in their enrichment classes even though they were not able to join us: Kenzie, Brady, Ollie, Ethan, Aidan, Gardiner, and Anthony.

AROUND THE CREEK
 Mr. Goldman's Discovery students show off their 3D Egyptian projects!
Deniz in Little Creek's pre-kindergarten class practices his math skills with candy corn. Yum!
Kyleigh works on visual motor coordination and fine motor skills using wiki sticks to create a spider web while in OT.
Ben and Collins label the continents on their relief maps in Ms. Usilton's Discovery class.
Annabell, Ethan, and Keagan work on creating five picture stories using the cards from the game Hollow Woods donated by the Hewes family!
Kindergarten students made mouse ears to emphasize the importance of listening to sounds. They listened to a jingle and a group of words beginning with the same sound and then would produce the first sound they heard.
Students in Mrs. Johnson's Discovery classes visited Mount Harmon Plantation last Friday. They toured the Tidewater Plantation home, participated in a Colonial Kitchen demonstration, played Colonial games, and actively took part in Colonial skits. They finished the day with a nature walk along the Sassafras River, with a visit to the tobacco barn.
